📝 Ingredients:
For the Crust:
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Layer:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream
For the Strawberry Layer:
2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
For Topping:
1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
Additional fresh strawberries for garnish
🧑🍳 Directions:
Prepare the Crust:
In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until the mixture resembles coarse sand.
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the other layers.
Prepare the Cheesecake Layer:
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the chilled crust.
Prepare the Strawberry Layer:
In a medium saucepan, combine the sliced strawberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and water.
Cook over medium heat until the strawberries begin to release their juices, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a little bit of water to make a slurry.
Stir the slurry into the strawberry mixture and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens.
Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature before spreading over the cheesecake layer.
Add Topping:
Spread the whipped topping evenly over the strawberry layer.
Garnish with additional fresh strawberries if desired.
Chill and Serve:
Refrigerate the lasagna for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Cut into squares and serve chilled.
